I reviewed my morethanamile maps, and noticed that about 10 miles south of Robin Bird Spring there is a trail called Miller Spring road, which indicates a spring to the west. Does anyone local to the area have any info on this or any other alternative? If Miller Spring is viable, the first water source north of hwy 58 may be 26 miles versus 36.
